lyrics

Empery by S. K. Kelen

I am shut out of mine own heart
because my love is far from me,
nor in the wonders have I part
that fill its hidden empery ~ Christopher Brennan

Empery O empery
flourish in the moonlight
stars across galaxy
are great empery

tree shadow empery
curtained for night
an open window
lets in the world

where still things move
street moon beams

black and white at night inside
voice and voice whisper shout

bring peace, a stormy kind,
day and night
a bird in the heart

a Mitsubishi song
whistles its own tune
want one, want one, want one

and you do,
the chorus voices boom
in the roof

just when the road starts
getting personal

there's an old street lamp
a wild moon night

and beams of ghost light
come flooding down

empery, all empery.
